Listed financial services education provider Tribeca has been sold to United States-based education provider and business trade publisher Kaplan.

Kaplan, which last year pulled in revenue of over US$1 billion, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Washington Post newspaper.

The New York-based company provides education services across a range of disciplines including health care, business, education, financial planning and information technology.

Profits for Tribeca tumbled in 2005 from last year’s $1.4 million profit to a reported loss of over $3 million. This came despite a 41 per cent increase in sales revenue to $24.8 million, and a 51 per cent increase in operating earnings to $3.8 million compared with the previous year.

Shares in Tribeca are currently trading at 29 cents.
